Sticking with RWD, Chrysler planning 2011 300 facelift

February 13th, 2008

A switch to a FWD would improve the fuel economy of the sedan but there’s no money set aside for it, reports TheCarConnection. The Canadian plant where the 300 and Charger is manufactured was set-up to build RWD cars and swapping to FWD would require major upgrades and retooling.
